We Opened in Orange Park in 2019 — Here's How Far We've Come

We Opened in Orange Park in 2019 — Here's How Far We've Come

We opened in Orange Park in December 2019 under the name Just Smash It, and News4Jax covered our opening that month. We're a family business, still run day to day by the same family that opened it. Seven years in, we're still running, and we've grown a fair amount since that first door opened.

How we started

The original Orange Park space was small, about 2,500 square feet, and rage rooms were the only thing we had. No axe throwing, no VR, no paint room. Just the rage rooms and corporate team building built around them.

The move that added everything else

In March 2020 we moved into a bigger space in Orange Park, 6,200 square feet, and that's when axe throwing, the VR arena, and the splash paint room got added to the lineup. That's what let us build four activities under one roof, so you can book two or more in one trip. Our rage room has grown since that first space too — four paid upgrade tiers now, if you want bigger items like TVs, furniture, or appliances in the mix. You can see how it all works in our rage room breakdown.

The move to Daytona Beach

In March 2026 we opened our second location in Daytona Beach — 7,700 square feet at 607 N Atlantic Avenue, on the corner of Atlantic and Seabreeze (GrowthSpotter covered the opening). We looked in Orlando first, but couldn't find a building that suited our needs there, so Daytona became the second location instead. That spot is open now, running the same four activities as Orange Park: rage rooms, axe throwing, VR, and the paint room. Same booking system and same prices at both. Visiting?

What changed along the way

We listen to feedback and try to fix what we can. When customers told us the axe boards were hard to stick an axe into, we switched the type of wood we use so it's easier to stick, and since people have praised the new boards, we know it was worth the change. We built our own booking flow so you can pick an activity, pick a time, add upgrades and pay without calling. We added bundle savings, so the more you do in one trip, the more you save. And we put our prices online tier by tier so nobody gets a surprise at the front desk.

What stayed the same

We're still a family. Staff still get trained on every activity, not just one. Rooms still get swept between every group. And every room is still only for your group, never shared with strangers. If you want the full list of what we do differently, read what makes us different.

Where we stand today

We're holding a 4.8 average on Google, with guests consistently bringing up the in-room Alexa speakers, our staff, and using a session to blow off stress with friends, coworkers, or family. What started as a 2,500-square-foot rage room in Orange Park is now two locations spanning Jacksonville's western suburbs and Daytona Beach, four activities under one booking system. We're grateful to everyone who has stuck with us this long.
